Freeman Dyson Quotes About Atmosphere

• La razón fundamental por la que el dióxido de carbono en la atmósfera es tan importante para la biología es que hay muy poco. Un campo de maíz que crece a pleno sol en pleno día consume todo el dióxido de carbono que hay en un metro a la redonda en unos cinco minutos. Si el aire no estuviera constantemente agitado por las corrientes de convección y los vientos, el maíz dejaría de crecer.

• The essential fact which emerges ... is that the three smallest and most active reservoirs ( of carbon in the global carbon cycle), the atmosphere, the plants and the soil, are all of roughly the same size. This means that large human disturbance of any one of these reservoirs will have large effects on all three. We cannot hope either to understand or to manage the carbon in the atmosphere unless we understand and manage the trees and the soil too.
